iKAGRA初期アラインメント手順 Initial Alignment Procedure for iKAGRA
JGW-T April 7, 2019 iKAGRA初期アラインメント手順 Initial Alignment Procedure for iKAGRA Yuta Michimura Department of Physics, University of Tokyo

First of All Commissioning? suspension, oplevs, cameras, digital, electronics, output optics, initial alignment, lock, stable operation, noise budgeting …… I will focus on iKAGRA initial alignment procedure discussion 3 km Michelson after IMMT I strongly recommend you to download JGW-T Important message: Commissioning team wants your contribution!

Expected Situation on Mar 2
All the mirrors (PR2, PR3, BS, ETMX, ETMY) installed with actuation from digital system (pico, OSEMs, coils) stable >250 mW from IMC in high finesse mode (s-pol) both 3km ducts evacuated (φ10cm viewport on each end; for Y arm, IYA+IYC also evacuated) EYA evacuated IYA φ10cm viewports IYC from IMMT2 PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA vented cleaned evacuated
4
IMMT2 Alignment (Mar 3) Use picomotors on IMMT2 to center the beam on PR2 PR3, PR2 chambers opened EYA IYA IYC center the beam by looking at PR2 surface (beam radius 3.7mm) align IMMT2 PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA
5
PR2 Alignment (Mar 3) Use picomotors on PR2 to center the beam on PR3
PR3, PR2 chambers opened EYA IYA IYC align PR2 PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA center the beam by looking at PR3 surface (beam radius 34mm)
6
Beam Profiling at PR3 (Mar 3)
Measure the profile of the beam going to PR3 tilt PR2 temporarily PR3, PR2 chambers opened EYA IYA IYC tilt PR2 PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA large beam profiler (beam radius 34 mm)
7
PR3 Alignment (Mar 4) Use OSEMS on PR3 to center the beam on BS
PR3, PR2, BS chambers opened EYA IYA IYC PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA align PR3 center the beam by looking at BS surface (beam radius 34mm)
8
Beam Profiling at IXA (Mar 4)
Measure the beam profile at IXA If not well collimated, move PR2 and iterate PR3, PR2, BS, IXA chambers opened EYA IYA IYC PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA large beam profiler (beam radius 34 mm) align PR3
9
Pointing to X Arm (Mar 4-7)
Put PD in EXA chamber, sweep PR3 alignment by OSEMs, and wait for the PD to get any signal PR3, PR2, BS, EXA chambers opened If no success, go to plan B EYA IYA IYC PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA sweep PR3 alignment Thorlabs PDA100A (beam radius 40 mm)
10
Beam Profiling at EXA (Mar 7)
Measure the beam profile at IXA (this beam is clipped by φ10mm viewports) PR3, PR2, BS, EXA chambers opened EYA IYA IYC PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA sweep PR3 alignment large beam profiler (beam radius 40 mm)
11
Pointing Back from X Arm (Mar 8)
Evacuate EXA if possible Put PD in BS chamber, sweep ETMX alignment by coils, and wait for the PD to get any signal PR3, PR2, BS chambers opened EYA IYA IYC sweep ETMX alignment PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA evacuate Thorlabs PDA100A (beam radius 40 mm)
12
Back to IFI (Mar 8) Adjust ETMX alignment to center the reflected beam on BS, PR3, PR2, and get the beam back to IFI and then REFL port PR3, PR2, BS chambers opened EYA IYA IYC adjust ETMX alignment to IFI PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA
13
Close X arm (Mar 9) Put X arm bellows, and evacuate X arm EYA IYA IYC
PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA put bellows evacuate
14
Pointing to Y arm (Mar 9-10)
Put PD in EYA chamber, sweep BS alignment by coils, and wait for the PD to get any signal PR3, PR2, BS, EYA chambers opened EYA Thorlabs PDA100A (beam radius 40 mm) IYA IYC sweep BS alignment PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA
15
Pointing Back from Y arm (Mar 11)
Evacuate EYA if possible Put PD in BS chamber, sweep ETMY alignment by coils, and wait for the PD to get any signal (block X arm beam) PR3, PR2, BS chambers opened EYA sweep ETMY alignment IYA IYC block X arm beam PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA Thorlabs PDA100A (beam radius 40 mm)
16
Get Fringe at REFL/AS (Mar 11)
Unblock X arm beam and confirm fringing at REFL/AS PR3, PR2, BS chambers opened EYA IYA IYC block X arm beam PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA Thorlabs PDA100A (beam radius 40 mm)
17
Close Everything (Mar 12-13)
Close remaining bellows and evacuate the whole IFO EYA IYA IYC evacuate PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA put bellows
18
Lock Michelson (Mar 14) Lock Michelson with REFL PD EYA IYA IYC PRM
BS IXC IXA EXA
19
Plan B (if we don’t see the beam at EX)
20
Evacuate Central Part (Mar 8)
Put AS screen in BS chamber, put all the bellows, and evacuate the central part Open gate valves at IX/IY EYA IYA IYC evacuate open this GV PRM PR3 PR2 BS IXC IXA EXA put bellows AS screen (beam radius 40 mm) Thorlabs PDA100A (beam radius 40 mm)
21
All the rest Pointing to X arm (Mar 9) Back to IFI from X arm (Mar 10)
Pointing to Y arm (Mar 11) Back to IFI from Y arm, and get fringing (Mar 12) Evacuate EXA and EYA (Mar 13) Lock Michelson (Mar 14) We skip beam profiling at EXA Use cameras/screens/irises(?) after evacuation of the central part
